Update from the Previous Blog Re: ABS Issue

Following up on the previous blog, I mentioned that I would be calling the service department at the Eugene, Oregon Ford dealership.  We did get a service appointment for 10:30 am.  

We woke up to -6 degrees Celsius in Harrisburg, Oregon.

The service adviser was very thorough and understanding.  Our truck was quickly delivered to one of the service bays where the ABS brake issue was diagnosed.  The computer showed a failing 'Rear Speed Sensor'.  It was replaced.  A complete inspection was included, with a major emphasis on the brakes.  The brakes are fine.  So, following a few hours in the service shop, it was returned to us. 

The motorcycle was frozen solid this morning.

While the Ford dealer was looking into our ABS issue, we walked around the area - featuring a very large shopping centre - and then found an Olive Garden for lunch.  

After leaving the Ford dealer, we topped up with diesel and purchased some groceries before returning to the RV park in Harrisburg.

Once the groceries were stored, it was time to return to the office to pay for night No. 2 here.  It was then that we chose to take a late afternoon walk before sun set.  It was still cool but our walk was refreshing.

Out for a late afternoon walk.  The ice is prominent in the waterfall at the entrance to the RV park.

With the ABS brake issue resolved, we leave here comfortable with the fact that the problem is now resolved. And the Ford dealer's service?  In one word; great!  When it was time to complete the paper work for the cashier, the dealer's computer system crashed.  We had to wait one half hour longer for the IT crew to fix the problem.  We were OK with that.  The coffee was good.  Due to making us wait that extra half hour, 10% of the total bill was discounted.  Nice gesture. 

We are set to roll further south tomorrow - Wednesday.

Thanks for dropping in.
